There is a meteorological radiometer below the tethered balloon, so the pressure, altitude, temperature and humidity data of the atmosphere can be measured during the ascending and descending of the captive balloon, and the personal control can be controlled regularly on different cable heights. The motor and the sampling bag are simultaneously sampled by the small motor at different heights after the captive balloon is raised to the final height. When the sampling is completed, the descending captive balloon is taken off the sampling bag, and immediately at the sampling point is O ₃ , NOx, SO ₂ , NMHC, CO and other continuous monitors for the concentration analysis of various pollutants.

At present, the mooring control device for the air ball is unable to accurately maintain the balloon at a predetermined lift height when the wind speed is changed, and the exact position of the sample cannot be accurately determined afterwards.

In order to improve the shortcomings of the mooring control system for the air balloon, the present invention provides a mooring control system for the air balloon, which is provided with at least: a box body, a winding drum, a tether, and a first tether. An eyelet fixing arm, a second tether hole moving mechanism, a motor and a rotational speed tension controller.

Wherein the winding drum is coupled to the casing and driven by a motor for winding the system Rope, control the lift height and recovery of the air balloon.

The first tether eye fixing arm is fixed to the box body, and the first tether hole is arranged at the upper end thereof, so that the lengthening and retracting of the tether must pass through the fixed point of the top of the tethering control system to facilitate sounding. Lifting and recycling of the balloon, and avoiding the tether winding the box itself or sweeping other surrounding objects when the wind direction suddenly changes.

The second tether aperture moving mechanism is provided with a second tether aperture for guiding the tether to move back and forth, so that the tether is compacted and wound on the winding drum layer by layer.

The speed tension controller is electrically connected to the motor, and the motor adjusts the tether according to the height comparison result returned by the air balloon, so that the air balloon is maintained at a height required for monitoring, continues to lift off, lowers the height, and pulls back. ground
